   So disappointed. This restaurant looks very appealing and it's right in our neighborhood. However not only did the food take more than 1 1/2 hours to get put on the table--after 45 minutes when we asked we were told that the pork chop takes 40 minutes would have been nice to have been told that. It wasn't particularly busy so I am not sure what the kitchen issue was. When it did get there, mine was inedible. A pork chop so overcooked it was like sawing wood and everything very heavily salted. We had to ask several times just to get water. We just asked for the billl and called it a night When we got the bill from a very apologetic server who offered us free dessert, etc. , it was for the wrong items--my husband was billed for salmon ($24) not jerk chicken ($20). By that time we just wanted out, it so stuffy and airless. What a pity. We won't be back

   Although the atmosphere is lovely and the service was good to a point… We waited at least an hour to an hour and a half for the chef to cook my steak properly. I ordered a medium well steak and I got a raw steak the first time and a mostly raw steak the second time the third time she made a whole new steak that was just OK. Very disappointing - I was looking forward to bring my children to this restaurant but now I will not!

   Sausalido is a great restaurant for food. We got a couple of appetizers and I got the risotto which was a huge portion. All of the food was delicious and expertly prepared. The service was excellent and very friendly. There was a good mix of people there. NOT hipster which I liked. The only thing was the ambiance. The decor is very faux looking. It's not the best lighting and just a general sense that they went cheap on the decor. But that would not stop me from going back for the food. It is worth it. The prices are reasonable and it's byob which keeps the cost down as well. Overall : Excellent

   The food was very good. My only complaint is the noise level became increasing loud as the restaurant filled with people and it became difficult to hear what my dining companion was saying.

   Sausalido is a fantastic hidden gem perfect for date night. It’s BYOB, which we are a fan of. The staff is very friendly and knows the menu well. Our waitress provided great insight to popular dishes and her favorites. I had a 16oz bone-in pork chop that was cooked perfectly. The setting has a rustic feel in an intimate space which overall gives off a homey feel. The owner is extremely friendly and accommodating. Highly recommended!

   I had requested a vegan meal when I reserved. The waitress was already aware and asked my preferences and spoke to the chef. The chef came to the table and spoke to me.also, and was so nice and accommodating. She seemed excited to create something for me and also adapted an appetizer to make it vegan. Everything was delicious, both my meal and those who chosen meals from the menu. Everyone was so nice and friendly also. It was a wonderful experience and I hope to go back again soon!

    The staff was friendly and attentive but food delivery was spotty and a little uneven. The food however was fantastic and well worth this minor issue. I had the seared tuna that was paired with a warm slaw that was out of the world. Deserts were delicious, we got one of each and shared. Hats off to Nick the owner for a great evening with friends.
